Hibs team v FC Santa Coloma revealed as Daniel Mackay is handed competitive debut

The first Hibs team to play in European competition for nearly three years has been revealed.

FC Santa Coloma are the visitors to Easter Road this evening and the hosts will be expected to win comfortably in their first ever outing in the Europa Conference League.

To try and make that happen, Jack Ross has named the side he hopes can take a lead to Andorra in the return leg.

Daniel Mackay is handed a start for his competitive debut after singing from Inverness CT in the summer.

Scott Allan makes a welcome return to competitive action in green and white - he was a teammate of Mackay's for the second half of last season after heading to the Highlands on loan.

Christian Doidge isn't fit enough to start but takes his place amongst the subs as Ross sticks with Kevin Nisbet through the middle with Mackay and Martin Boyle either side of him.

Hibs: Macey, McGinn, Porteous, Hanlon (c), Stevenson, Newell, Gogić, Boyle, Allan, Mackay, Nisbet.

Subs: Dąbrowski, Samson, Doig, Magennis, Wright, Doidge, Gullan, McGregor, Bradley, Campbell, Brydon.
